When it comes to a cross-country trip, we’re apparently equal-opportunity travelers. During our Pizza Crawl adventure across the United States, we ended up using just about every mode of transportation imaginable—plane, train, car, and even bus.
We flew between major cities to cover long distances, rented cars or used Uber in Chicago and Detroit, grabbed a train from NYC to New Haven and back, and even used the buses to get around New Haven. I guess it takes a village of transportation options to maximize travel!
One form of transportation I don’t use often is the bike. I’m not necessarily opposed to it. I’m just a stronger hiker than a cyclist. Any place where biking might have made sense, we usually just walked instead. Exploring cities on foot let us enjoy the little details we would have missed if we were moving faster.
So while bikes didn’t make the official transportation list for our Pizza Crawl, our feet definitely logged plenty of miles. And in my opinion, walking is still one of the best ways to truly experience a place—especially when there’s great pizza waiting at the next stop.
